Answer 1

Answer: It shows correct if this is the model your looking for

Explanation:

Answer 2

The factors of the expression
`f(x)= 3x^(2) + 4x + 1` are (3x + 1)(x + 1).

Explanation:

The expression is:

`f(x)= 3x^(2) + 4x + 1`

Factorize the expression as follows:

`f(x)= 3x^(2) + 4x + 1`

`=3x^(2)+3x+x+ 1\\\\=3x(x+1)+1(x+1)\\\\=(3x+1)(x+1)`

Thus, the factors of the expression
`f(x)= 3x^(2) + 4x + 1` are (3x + 1)(x + 1).
